88:88 – THE GREY
pulled this off of SDTW.
don’t know nothing about the when where why of this album.
but im digging it so far…..
dark, eclectic bass music, elements of house, dubstep, drum n bass, what sound like some live instrumental loops,
and lots of weird vocal samples.
get it herrrreeeeee.

just giving it a first listen now. thoughts to come. maybe. whatever.
leaky drizz
Here’s a couple leaks from Drake’s forthcoming Take Care LP.
Lotta feelings going on if you’re into that. Either way, good flows and some spacy beats from Noah 40 Shebib.

Carter IV Leaks; Weezy Still Slippin
Weezy F baby… And the F is for ‘fucking retarded. ‘
The Carter 4 leaked last week and its awful. But that’s no surprise. We’ve been dealing with the singles ever since lil tunechi got out of prison last year. And yeah, we kinda liked 6 Foot 7 Foot and the new She Will track with Drake is OK, but lets face it: weezy just ain’t the same weezy as before prison. Shit, since before Carter 3 for that matter.
Whatever. The real news about the album doesn’t have to do with how mediocre it is, but with a diss track. Apparently on the song It’s Good ft. Jadakiss and Drake, weezy drops an obscure knock on Jay-Z, and Drake kind of apologetically says “don’t get too comfy hov” or something like that. From the amount of hype in the bloghaus about this beef between weez and hov, I was disappointed when the song not only sucked but failed to effectively diss anybody. What’s even more disappointing is weezy trying to comment on this supposed beef with Jay-Z:
“I know there won’t be any repercussions behind what I did…I know for a fact music is about perception. You can’t do anything but perceive what you hear. I know that for a fact. So I can’t ever be upset about someone’s reaction.”
Sometimes I feel like Mugatu in zoolander in that scene where he’s like “I feel like I’m taking fucking crazy pills” cause nobody else realizes that Derek only has one look. Cause guess whatt: weezy only got one look too. I can only deal with so many “I beat the pussy up call me mike tyson” lines from one dude. Now he’s pickin a fight with hov? And he can’t even put together a coherent explanation about it?
Just sayin. You’re slippin weezy.
**Update, 9.1.11:
After another listen, the album is still bad. But I do like two tracks more than I realized. Abortion is OK (“woke up this morning, dick rock hard; ashed my blunt in my grammy award.”) and a bonus track on the iTunes super deluxe edition called ‘Two Shots’ is the best thing I’ve heard weezy rock since Rikers. Why it wasn’t on the official tracklist is beyond me. Perhaps it was too good to put on such a shit album:
NYC: Live Blogging My Sex Date w Hurricane Irene
Sorry, it’s another tired “fuck the hurricane let’s get drunk” blog post… Or is it?
Not since Bloomberg’s blizzard O-10 fiasco has the blogging community had so much clever advice for dealing with extreme weather. The entire Internet must be buckling under the weight of all the ironical “how to be prepared” lists being shat out by brooklyn blogs and web-zines. smh. I’m not here to tell you what to do. It’s your hurricane, so you do you. I’m just gonna tell you some of my ideas for how I’m gonna do me. I’m going to try this new Live Blogging plugin I just installed, so check back throughout the storm if you a) still have electricity/internet and b) aren’t surfing down broadway on the hood of your camry covered in floodmud*.

Droppin deuces like chris breezy reading my Ian McEwan I look out the window and its.. sunny outside?
Wait, we had mandatory evacuations for a “tropical storm?”
Apparently Irene got downgraded faster than the US debt last night. Now it just looks like a normal, bum-ass sunday.
Ohwell, disaster or not, the liveblogging thing worked out (?) Guess me and my posse will have to wait until next doomsday to form a militia and takeover Best Buy on 86th.
Until then..

Rain stopped. Starting to doubt there’s even a hurricane coming. Fuck you at Irene? FUCK U AT?
Having one of these in the meantime:

Stopped raining. Strange skies. Kind of anxious for the mayhem to start. Getting the most out of netflix on the PS3 while we still have power. 30 rock.
We’ve assembled a survivor kit:
-6pk fuji water
-bodega candles (the ones virgin mary on them for good luck)
-jumbo wine, for her
-gordon’s gin, for him
-mint milanos
Let’s get this party started.

105th street and Amsterdam, chillin. Rain is falling. Gotta get my mind right. First and foremost: pick a hurricane theme song. For me its easy; I always listen to the same song when hurricanes hit new york:
If and when the looting starts, rowdy hip hop will help you get your FTW vibe on and go hijack some flatscreens with your homies. Or at the very least give mother nature the middle finger up the bum. Note: if 24hr tunes are important to you, make sure you got those D-batteries for the theme music stocked up.
Swaggin Hard
yessir. after lots of trials and tribs the site is finally up- no more wp.com’s. this is that .org ish. self-hosted. sucker free.
there will be lots of changes in the days to come. the look and feel will change. we will integrate with your favorite social networks including the twitter and the facebook. we will be more on top of posting. contributors will be taken to the countryside for reeducation. you might see some shiny new advertisting.
these are positive changes. i hope you enjoy. in the mean time, im gonna take my good mood and go bump this on the steps.
